Description
This construct codes for intermembrane protein Na(+)/H(+) antiporter NhaA, which is a proton pump from E. coli capable of excreting one Na(+) ion in exchange for two H(+) external protons. This protein is active at alkaline pH. This construct is regulated by a weak constitutive promoter and its objective is to augment bacterial resistance to alkaline pH.
Notes
The coding sequence is optimized for its expression in C. violaceum and could be tested as a potential selective marker for C. violaceum. This construct is regulated by a weak constitutive promoter and its objective is to augment bacterial resistance to alkaline pH.
Source
The sequence was obtained from Uniprot P13738. The origin for this sequence is E. Coli.
